Type of review

- Easy management of Docker repositories. No need for additional software.- Easy setup and configuration of alerts,- Automation using CI/CD or other pipelines. I like that it works as an additional layer of security for my applications running within kubernetes. It's easy to get started using without any expertise. It's also compatible with the older version of k8s which was a plus for me! I am not totally satisfied with the user interface. The dashboard view needs some work. Also, there is no

Reliable, flexible and affordable container management

I have been working as an admin for stack rox since it was called nopipe (now k8sops). It has helped me keep my production infra up & running smoothly over many years now - even when we've had issues such that our network vendor would no longer support certain versions of linux distros or docker containers etc! This tool also allows you very fine grained control how your infrastructure runs within Docker using PodSpec files which really gives some useful flexibility here compared other…

Pros
  • I like the simplicity you can scale up your infra while having complete control of the network between nodes and the containers hosted on them
Cons
  • I have found a few limitations with the way things work and have to do some workarounds and the UI not really the best ever for some reason

I like how easy it was for our team members who are not necessarily developers or sysadmins (like myself)to set up rules using stackroxy's GUI tool as well use its API if we need advanced functionality beyond what they have provided out of box! We can easily create new applications / containers which needs different levels permissions without involving IT personnel/developers etc - this will be very helpful when deploying CI pipelines where each stage requires some additional privileges…

Pros
  • Easy to use, easy to install, easy to understand tool, easy to integrate with existing infrastructure, easy to deploy, easy to scale especially when we need to scale based on our application requirements
Cons
  • Nothing to dislike about stackrox it does what it is supposed to do and more!
